aight! - this is my first newbie post
have an x60 and am a bit shocked to find that the keyboard is on par with other commercial laptops out there (ie NOT better than them). I have the last X-series made IBM laptop (x40) and the keyboard lives up to the Thinkpad's reputation of being by far the best. I have no idea what the thinkpad reviews are talking about when they say the build quality has been maintained. It hasnt. Its keys wobble about + make that annoying patter-patter sound you get when typing on a generic cheap laptop. (I have an X60s and have the same issue so this is not unique to my X60).
My query is as follows. Anyone know if it's possible to swap an X60 keyboard with one from an X40. Dimensions look the same..
cheers
